00:00.240 --> 00:02.340
So let's go through some subheads here.

00:03.430 --> 00:11.590
The point of the subhead is mainly to break down the copy into easily readable segments.

00:11.980 --> 00:14.930
As you can see in the example of Free from scratch.

00:14.950 --> 00:17.890
Dot com is one of our own blog contents.

00:18.280 --> 00:20.170
We have two subheads here.

00:20.590 --> 00:24.520
It's the pond you need to fish in and it's free.

00:25.450 --> 00:29.680
Both those things aren't very clear, but they're quite interesting.

00:29.980 --> 00:32.790
The pond you need to fish in, it's free.

00:33.940 --> 00:35.080
I need to know more.

00:35.320 --> 00:37.280
So continue piquing their interest.

00:37.600 --> 00:39.040
Continue dragging them in.

00:39.250 --> 00:43.600
And of course, just like the headline, you want to capture the attention of people who are reading.

00:43.750 --> 00:46.960
Some people aren't going to be sure if this is what they need.

00:47.290 --> 00:48.970
They're just going to be scanning it.

00:49.300 --> 00:51.730
Subheads is an insurance.

00:51.910 --> 00:57.910
They are there to make sure that the scanner can see if it's interesting for them, if it's targeted

00:57.910 --> 00:58.750
to them.

00:59.110 --> 01:04.510
If it is, then, of course, they're going to go back up and read it through, because once again,

01:04.510 --> 01:05.770
time is valuable.

01:05.980 --> 01:06.940
We scan things.

01:06.970 --> 01:10.390
We don't waste time on something that doesn't apply to us.

01:10.720 --> 01:17.470
So when we speak about our readers, generally, they're going to be either very interested prospects.

01:17.530 --> 01:18.990
They're going to read everything.

01:19.000 --> 01:20.320
They're just going to dissect.

01:20.320 --> 01:22.720
They're just going to consume your content.

01:23.200 --> 01:25.510
They want to flip everything upside down and check it out.

01:25.540 --> 01:26.790
They're very interested.

01:26.920 --> 01:31.930
Or there's also going to be interested prospects who are not looking to spend money.

01:32.290 --> 01:38.230
These are the scanners and these are the ones who you need to make sure that this is targeted to them.

01:38.410 --> 01:41.260
Or if it's not, they're going to bounce away.

01:41.420 --> 01:42.490
They're just going to leave.

01:42.910 --> 01:45.040
Of course, there's also a third part here.

01:45.250 --> 01:47.210
And those are the ones who aren't interested.

01:47.680 --> 01:52.030
But that's not really important because they won't be reading this in the first place.

01:52.480 --> 01:53.650
They're going to read the headlines.

01:53.650 --> 01:57.130
See, this isn't for me and move on once again.

01:57.360 --> 01:59.620
Taylor, it's so knowing this.

01:59.770 --> 02:02.710
Here are the ingredients for great subheads.

02:03.370 --> 02:05.380
You need to peak the curiosity.

02:05.830 --> 02:07.810
Don't make it plain and simple.

02:07.840 --> 02:09.250
Don't just spill it out.

02:09.850 --> 02:11.560
Keep their curiosity up.

02:12.100 --> 02:13.810
You need to be surprising.

02:13.990 --> 02:19.920
You want to get an emotional reaction of our really make them want to read the copied text.

02:20.200 --> 02:26.170
Or if it's an ad, make them want to click your ad just like the two above it.

02:26.250 --> 02:26.780
Emotion.

02:27.490 --> 02:29.080
It's all about emotion.

02:29.200 --> 02:30.640
Everything is emotion here.

02:30.790 --> 02:32.210
People buy with their emotion.

02:32.260 --> 02:34.000
People search from their emotion.

02:34.660 --> 02:36.370
We're emotional creatures.

02:36.610 --> 02:37.780
And this is how we connect.

02:37.870 --> 02:38.950
This is how we buy.

02:39.190 --> 02:40.360
This is how we justify.

02:40.870 --> 02:42.970
Focus on the emotions.

02:43.540 --> 02:46.420
And finally, inject your personality.

02:46.810 --> 02:49.090
People want a relationship with you.

02:49.450 --> 02:51.070
People want to know you.

02:51.310 --> 02:54.430
People are building the trust with you.

02:54.880 --> 02:56.020
Be personal.

02:56.140 --> 02:57.220
Create copywriting.

02:57.760 --> 03:00.160
Is that a sixth grader level?

03:00.790 --> 03:01.690
Write that down.

03:01.870 --> 03:02.960
Create Copywriting.

03:03.430 --> 03:05.770
Is writing at the sixth creator level.

03:06.550 --> 03:08.970
Writing like you talk.

03:09.400 --> 03:15.610
And in this way, when you're writing like you're talking, dad is personality.

03:16.000 --> 03:19.300
That is interesting and that is building a relationship.

03:19.750 --> 03:22.490
So let's take an example here of some bad copywriting.

03:22.690 --> 03:26.290
Now the headline is, is it time to upgrade your phone?

03:27.070 --> 03:29.460
So here are some bad subheads.

03:29.980 --> 03:32.050
Number one, your screen is cracked.

03:32.380 --> 03:33.970
Your touch screen doesn't work.

03:34.270 --> 03:35.770
You keep dropping calls.

03:36.370 --> 03:41.140
Now, notice the headline is, is it time to upgrade your phone and all these subheads?

03:41.170 --> 03:42.400
They're answering the question.

03:42.610 --> 03:46.870
Well, you're screen credit touchin doesn't where you keep dropping the calls because this subheads

03:46.870 --> 03:48.640
have already answered the questions.

03:48.850 --> 03:50.560
There's no need for me to read the text.

03:50.710 --> 03:52.690
There's nothing more for me to explore.

03:53.110 --> 03:55.390
And frankly, that's quite boring.

03:55.750 --> 03:57.070
I'm not very interested.

03:57.820 --> 04:00.940
So this isn't bad subheads or killing the curiosity.

04:00.970 --> 04:02.560
There's no emotion behind it.

04:02.590 --> 04:04.750
There's there is nothing in it for me.

04:05.200 --> 04:05.950
It's a question.

04:06.220 --> 04:09.310
And then there is an answer and it doesn't trigger anything.

04:09.610 --> 04:10.480
No emotion.

04:10.990 --> 04:13.680
Let's take some examples of some good subheads.

04:14.020 --> 04:17.230
No, the first one would be cell phone associates.

04:17.410 --> 04:20.170
Can't answer questions about your phone.

04:20.890 --> 04:27.040
Now, if that doesn't trigger curiosity within you, I don't know what will is a perfect example of

04:27.040 --> 04:28.540
a great subhead.

04:28.720 --> 04:32.290
Second one, you can buy cases for your phone anymore.

04:32.920 --> 04:36.310
Of course, they're kind of suggesting it might be outdated.

04:36.910 --> 04:42.970
But once again, that is an interesting headline that makes you think that triggers an emotion that

04:42.970 --> 04:44.500
triggers your curiosity.

04:44.890 --> 04:46.060
Great subheads.

04:46.150 --> 04:49.510
And then finally, an upgrade won't cost you anything.

04:49.660 --> 04:51.730
Well, if an upgrade doesn't cost you anything.

04:51.910 --> 04:55.990
Chances are what you have isn't very valuable to begin with.

04:56.260 --> 04:58.060
Maybe it's time you upgrade your phone.

04:58.480 --> 05:02.380
All of these are incredibly interesting and they're here to peak.

05:02.730 --> 05:03.570
Curiosity.
